Does anyone know if/when Informix plans to implement a separate username/password component for IDS 9.x on Unix which avoids having to create an O/S login account? It's getting awfully tedious to kluge a transparent, universal and anonymous Unix account supporting connection for every web app we're developing.

But of course, that means nothing. :0)
